Thank you Very Berry: Champuru

In 2009 it was announced that old H!P shuffle groups would be revived!
All H1P members (exept for the H!P Eggs) would be putt into revival groups, which means that they wouldn't be in their normal group and would sing with others.
In some groups they tried to putt original members, but this was impossible for some of the groups, because their members already joined another group. The following groups were revived with the following members (red being Berryz Koubou members):
High- King
Takahashi Ai, Tanaka Reina, Yajima Maimi, Shimizu Saki and Maeda Yuuka

Zoku V-u-den
Michishige Sayumi, JunJun and Sugaya Risako.

Aa!
Natsuyaki Miyabi, Suzuki Airi and Saho Akari.

ZYX-α
Niigaki Risa, Kusumi Koharu, Umeda Erika, Tsugunaga Momoko, Tokunaga Chinami, Sudo Maasa, Wada Ayaka and Ogawa Saki

Shin Minimoni
Linlin, Fukuda Kanon, Miyamoto Karin and Takeuchi Akari

Petimoni V
Mano Erina, Nakajima Saki and Hagiwara Mai

Tanpopo# 
Kamei Eri, Mitsui Aika, Kumai Yurina and Okai Chisato

This ment that Miyabi and Momoko (also Airi and Erika) returned to the sub-units they once started in. The groups covered old songs from the units, but they also released an album in which they covered populair Japanese songs. This album was called:  Chanpuru 1 ~ Happy Marriage Song Cover Shuu ~. Each sub-unit covered a song, but they also covered a song with their normal group (Momusu did some solos, a duet and a quartet, Berryz en C-ute recorded songs with Mano Erina). 

The shuffle groups were pretty populair and most of them released a original track on a petit best album. The groups kept preforming until 2012, when so many members had graduated that the groups were falling apart.

I always loved these groups so much! They started when I was a new fan, so I really liked seeing them in diffrent groups and getting to know each one of them. Tanpopo# was my absolute favorite group, because it had 3 of my all time favorite H!P members in it: Kamei, Kumai and Okai! I really enjoyed the songs these groups did, with my favorite being Umbrella (Tanpopo#) and ONLY YOU (Zoku V-u-den). I hope they will do something like this again in the future, with ofcourse a lot of new members.
